Raspberry and Coconut Slice

Are you a lover of good old fashioned slices?  I remember as a child visiting my beloved Grandmother and always finding her kitchen filled with an array of cake and biscuit tins all filled with a myriad of delectable treats for us to share.  One of her absolute all time *go to* recipes was this one that I will share with you today for "Raspberry and Coconut Slice.

I am yet to ever serve it to a guest that doesn't like it and beg me for the recipe.  I love it because it is nice and easy, very quick to make and is made from ingredients that I always have on hand.

• 1 cup caster sugar
• 125g butter, chilled, cubed
• 3 eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
• 3/4 cup raspberry jam
• 2 cups desiccated coconut

Method

1. Preheat oven to 180C. Grease and line a 3cm deep, 24cm x 29.5cm (base) lamington pan.
2. Process flour, 1/2 cup sugar and butter to resemble breadcrumbs. Add 1 egg and vanilla. Process to form a dough.
3. Press dough into base of prepared pan. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until light golden. Spread jam over warm base.

   This slice will keep well in a sealed tin for several days BUT it is my experience that there isn't much chance of that happening as it will be devoured long before then!
